  1. I started thinking about the football passing rules... that did cause more scoring. and that is what was wanted... however, would like to see the data on increased viewership based on this scoring.. i may have to do some digging. I think the increased availability of betting on games and parts of games has increased viewership more than any actual rules change however...
  2. when they stopped calling fouls in bball i quit watching.. but i agree with your premise in general im just not sure more people are going to watch b/c we change a TD point
  3. Do you have those numbers? I am not saying they dont exist or weren't used... just would like to actually look at them. I have heard many times that the step out caused increased action in freestyle, but have never seen numbers to compare pre/post pushout... help a guy out?
  4. this is an example of data driven changes https://thesportjournal.org/article/strategically-driven-rule-changes-in-nba-causes-and-consequences/
  5. saw these and began to wonder... I'm not sure i agree with them.. but it made me think I have been in organizations enough to know that change usually isn't driven by numbers... but by cronies who have ear oif someone in power and say... 'i hear....' and then the change is made as to 1? we will see if baseball pitch clock has an effect 2. almost certain this is true. 3. wouldn't really work b/c the match would have been wrestled differently..potentially b/c of scoring etc... but the point remains... this should be tested somehow. not waste an entire season. 4. the top subjectivity of are you trying to turn is the only real problem i see here a 3 TD instead of 2 wont be hard... we adjusted to the 4pt NF pretty quick.
  6. taking riding time away means i dont have to get out
  7. so... how is this different from a 2 pt takedown
  8. question: will the 3 point takedown make wrestlers more cautious? if i screw this shot up... or he has great defense/scramble ability/defensive counters... i dont want go down 3-0
  9. I know many kids like this... many of them in counseling already... they dont see anything as an opportunity to grow... it will just be another punishment they dont see themselves or their actions as the problem.. its those damn administrators who noticed my bad actions
  10. reversal will be 3 as well?
  11. i have worried about this for years... my son had a kid threaten him with a gang sign and such after a match in college... i was down in the mat area the rest of the tourney just in case, and made sure i went to the locker area when my son was done and made sure he went with teammates so he didn't get attacked in the shower
  12. makes me work harder to ride the guy maybe...
  13. hmmm, we had a navy ride, where you had a turk and the guy rolls away... so you pick up the other leg and elbow him in the ribs to keep his back exposed...
  14. we called it the sun devil
  15. wait, so cael did take something from iowa.. lol JK
  16. who's gonna pick 'em?
  17. i mean every move is based on leverage of some kind... is the risk of concussion a little different.. i think yes in light of our knowledge of head injuries we used to have guys gumby out of a spiral.. let their shoulder slip so they could get a potential dangerous call... obviously a spiral is going against a joint... whether the shoulder comes up or not...
  18. on cross face... we found that if you slammed your bicep into the ear it didn't bring a point like using your forearm on the face
  19. we pulled the man out... not down... this extends them so they go flat... or let go to stay off the mat... sometimes it ended up being a bounce.
  20. how about clubbing the head?
  21. really... you think the acc will give up it's bball tourney?
  22. i had forgotten that evil
